To examine the relationship between sleep-wake habits and the use of health care services.
The proportions of the participants who were "early to bed" and "late to bed" were 48.7% and 51.3%, respectively. In the full sample, compared with those who were early to bed and early to rise, participants who went to bed late were more likely to report physician visits (late to bed and early to rise: OR = 1.13, 95% CI: 1.08-1.19, late to bed and late to rise: OR = 1.27, 95% CI: 1.18-1.38, respectively). We found no significant association between sleep-wake habits and the number of hospitalization.
Those middle-aged and elderly people who stayed up late and got up late are more likely to visit the doctors than those who went to bed early and got up early.
We obtained data from a cohort study of retired employees in China, and 36,601 (95.59%) involved in the present study. The participants were allocated into 4 sleep-wake habits groups: Early-bed/Early-rise, Early-bed/Late-rise, Late-bed/Early-rise, and Late-bed/Late-rise. We explored the association between sleep-wake habits with the number of physician visits and hospitalizations.
探讨睡眠-觉醒习惯与卫生保健服务使用之间的关系。
“早睡”和“晚睡”参与者的比例分别为 48.7%和 51.3%。在全样本中，与早睡早起者相比，晚睡晚起者更有可能就诊（晚睡早起：OR = 1.13，95%CI：1.08-1.19；晚睡晚起：OR = 1.27，95%CI：1.18-1.38）。我们未发现睡眠-觉醒习惯与住院次数之间存在显著关联。
与早睡早起者相比，中老年晚睡晚起者更有可能就诊。
我们从中国退休员工队列研究中获取数据，其中 36601 人（95.59%）参与了本研究。参与者被分为 4 种睡眠-觉醒习惯组：早睡早起、早睡晚起、晚睡早起和晚睡晚起。我们探讨了睡眠-觉醒习惯与就诊次数和住院次数之间的关系。
